:Yes, I added an ADDITIONAL CHART. It has nothing to do with polls. The chart shows trendline excluding MFG, while the existing chart shows trendlines with MFG (which is not in parliament yet). Both charts must be shown. --[[User:The Pollster|The Pollster]] ([[User talk:The Pollster#top|talk]]) 15:48, 3 December 2021 (UTC) |

Thanks for filling in some of the missing margin of error numbers in the
List of Nigerian states by population
In January you updated List of Nigerian states by population. However, the only source you cite (http://www.guardiannewsngr.com/news/article01) doesn't seem to mention any state populations. Could you reconcile this please? Picaroon (Talk) 21:12, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Austrian polls
Hey
Who would you consider the best and most reliable Austrian and Hungarian pollsters?
--Batmacumba (talk) 19:16, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
Regarding the date of the polls: Schouldn't we at least state the exact period (e.g. 16-18.05.2017) and note with an asteriks that in some cases the polling period is not clear (e.g. her: http://www.oe24.at/oesterreich/politik/Sensationsumfrage-nach-OeVP-Beben-Kurz-deutlich-vorne/282469349)?
- The polling period is usually always clear, either in the article (or follow-up article) or on the page of the pollster. I added "last day of polling" on top of the page to make it clear. --The Pollster (talk) 04:19, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current
Incomplete results category
Hello. I think you may have misunderstood the point of the category. It is to be placed on articles where the results tables are incomplete – i.e. missing information such as number of votes, seats, invalid ballots and registered voters (nothing to do with whether the results are final or not). There is no figure in the results table for the number of registered voters for the second round of the presidential election, so the results are incomplete.

- I added sources now. Keep the page intact. --The Pollster (talk) 09:07, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
Active cases
Can you explain this edit? I do not know why you insist on including the number of active cases, every time that I remove it from the infobox. That number is not even indicated in the source that I am using, even if I open those individual pages that they publish every day. Can you always be certain that all of those cases that are not considered dead or recovered are still active? I also checked the sources that you placed on the talk page, and they appear to be late.
- Those are not my sources, someone else posted them. The most important source is the Interior Ministry and yes, the active cases each day are total cases MINUS deaths MINUS recovered. As usual.--The Pollster (talk) 19:11, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
- That source is also what I am using. But is that formula for the active cases also used by the Interior Ministry? If no, then I do not know why that number is still there. LSGH (talk) (contributions) 02:19, 14 November 2020 (UTC)]
- Yes. Every case that is not recovered or dead is an active case.--The Pollster (talk) 07:48, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
- Then look at LSGH (talk) (contributions) 04:37, 15 November 2020 (UTC)]
- Australia is not Austria though. In our country, every person that is currently „active“ gets tested several times again after 1-2 weeks by the Red Cross and is then either still active or recovered. There is nothing in between. There are total cases, active, recovered and the dead. Just subtract from the total cases the number of recovered and dead when you update. You have done so for months. Thanks. --The Pollster (talk) 07:00, 15 November 2020 (UTC)
- If so, then that's what you say. Then why is the number important for you? LSGH (talk) (contributions) 10:53, 15 November 2020 (UTC)]
- Active cases are important for long-term developments and there needs to be consistant updates and no breaks in the series.--The Pollster (talk) 16:02, 15 November 2020 (UTC)

ANI report
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Impru20talk 12:37, 7 November 2021 (UTC)
Avoid mentioning editors’ personal attributes
Hello. For best results you should avoid mentioning other editors’ personal attributes, such as the incidents linked at this ANI thread. [1] Things like nationality, gender, physical characteristics, and favorite ice cream flavor are completely irrelevant to Wikipedia. If you must criticize, focus on the edits and be sure to cite diffs and links with specificity. Jehochman Talk 09:32, 11 November 2021 (UTC)

Do yourself a favor
Please don't do any more reverts, or repeating of a prior edit that somebody else reverted. If something is wrong you can explain why on the talk page, in a calm voice, with direct quotes and citations. See Graham's heirachry of disagreement. In addition, don't repeat yourself. If other editors want to be wrong, let them. Eventually somebody will notice and set things right. You shouldn't try to do too much yourself. Jehochman Talk 16:05, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
WP:HARASSMENT?
At time of writing 8 editors have reported in the ANI thread about you that they have had unauthorised attempts to login to their accounts over this weekend. This is unusual. 6 of those editors supported your being made subject to a TBAN. The remaining 2 made what could be considered adverse comments abput your editing behaviour. Circumstantially, it’s reasonable to believe that this may be

Question
Hej, I just thought about something: Do you maybe have an offline text of the article you work with? And then copy-paste this offline version into wikipedia? Because you keep re-introducing old changes into the live version of wikipedia. Mvbaron (talk) 08:56, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
- No, I use the old version of my updated version which gets constantly reverted, but I think reflects the current situation in Austria better than the corruption-riddled versions of impru.--The Pollster (talk) 10:02, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
- Hi, yes I can see that - but you really should self-revert and don’t use your updated version anymore. You will probably be banned from editing if you don’t - this really is friendly advice. I also think that research affairs is unreliable, but we need to discuss this at RS or the talk page and you Need to stop trying to put your old version into Wikipedia. You should self-revert now otherwise this is all for nothing and you’ll get blocked in the next hour or so. Mvbaron (talk) 10:18, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
Topic ban
Hi, letting you know that the outcome of the ANI discussion is that you have been
Some minor bureaucracy:
- There are some minor ban exceptions listed at WP:BANEXbut important to note that a content disagreement is not usually "obvious vandalism" and misusing these exceptions will likely lead to a block.
- Bans can be appealed at any time, and instructions on how to do so are at WP:AN. It's usual to wait some time before lodging a ban appeal, but up to you.
Obviously this isn't the outcome you would have preferred given your strong interest in polling (and obviously, your username). Hopefully there are other areas of Wikipedia editing that catch your interest. If so then all the best in editing those topics, and happy to discuss further if required. -- Euryalus (talk) 02:29, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
